SCOPE OF THE COLLOQUIUM
The ICBO and FOIS 2012 conferences will host a joint Early Career 
Symposium. This event is designed to provide an opportunity for current 
PhD students and postdoctoral researchers to give a short presentation 
of their research with ample time for feedback and mentorship. It will 
also allow participants to network with other early career scientists in 
ontology and biomedicine. While attendance is open to anyone registered 
for one of the main conferences, presenters should be active doctoral 
students or postdoctoral researchers.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Intending participants should submit an extended abstract, which may be 
a description of their current or planned research, an abstract of their 
PhD proposal, or a description of a related issue such as methodology. 
The research should either have a significant ontology component already 
or a plan to utilize ontologies in the future. All topics that fall into 
the scope of the conference are welcome.

Submission is via EasyChair 
(https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icbo-2012), according to 
the template provided on the conference web site (up to two pages):
http://www.kr-med.org/icbofois2012/doccons.htm

PRESENTATION
Presentations at the ECS will be given by doctoral or early postdoctoral 
researchers which have to register for the ECS. Accepted submissions 
will be presented as short talks (timing will depend on the final number 
of accepted submissions), with additional time for questions and 
discussion. Accepted submissions will be published in a symposium 
booklet (PDF).

TRAVEL FUNDS
A limited number of travel grants for the conferences may become 
available. Interested applicants should send an e-mail to 
ludger.jansen at uni-rostock.de. We will contact them with further details 
on how to submit an application once the funds have been secured.
